Had my Z for a week now, but only just got around to pictures. Too busy driving/buying alloys! :D

For a near-6-year-old car, the paintwork is immaculate. There are zero marks on the entire front bumper, as this was replaced by the last owner, and there only one or two incredibly small ones anywhere else on the skirts, etc. Dead pleased with it. Pictures are a bit crap, but I get a new camera this week (I had to borrow a friend's for these), and once I've learned how to use it I might try some more artsy ones!

I've really enjoyed the noise and acceleration over the last week or so. Two of my previous cars (A3 2L TDI S-line, Mazda RX-8) both had a reasonable amount of poke, but neither felt as planted or smooth, despite the RX-8 sometimes feeling like it was on rails in corners! Just need to get the wheels and runflats replaced now to improve it.

Most of my plans are summarised in my signature. Just bought a set of Z4M wheels, one of which needs a bit of a refurb, which should be happening soon. Then to fit Eagle F1s all round and sell my current 108s - which are in need of a refurb due to corrosion in the rim splits - and the two Bridgestones which are worth selling (one front, one rear). Once the private plate is on in the next few weeks, you can recognise me driving my Z around Donny/Scunny as I look like this, though obviously less poser-ish!

A very happy first week from a new owner :D
 
isnt there some sort of issue fitting the M wheels to a non-M?> I may be wrong though...or maybe its just the CSL wheels? :?
 
I've seen a few people with them on (some of the pics on this forum), so they must have got them on somehow.

I hope not, anyway! :cry:

Can anyone a bit more knowledgeable than me clear this up?
 
So basically I just have to downsize slightly on tyres. Thanks very much, klarky!
 
very nice, i have the same age car and would love to see some pics with the new wheels on. :thumbsup:

Hang on, I've just read that thread again. Not sure if it's because it's in the early hours of the morning or not, but anyway: am I reading it right if I say that Z4M wheels will fit and ride fine on a normal Z4 without catching/rubbing IF they're fitted with standard Z4 size tyres?
 
Very nice. Look forward to seeing the M wheels on at the South Yorkshire meet :thumbsup:

This might actually be done in time now. Had the refurb done on the one wheel that needed it and ordered the Falkens yesterday. Hopefully my cousin will fit them at work at some point during the next few days!
